Manifestations of Online Hate Speech

The aim of this report is to illustrate, on the basis of online hate speech examples from six countries, patterns of cyber hate against four communities. The topics that will be subsequently analysed are: antisemitism, antiziganism, homophobia and anti-Muslim hatred. Each section will follow a similar pattern by first offering a definition of the central terms, analysing the context and transnational trends and then highlighting country-specific aspects.6 The label “country specific” should not imply that those aspects are in any way country exclusive. However, they show different emphasis and peculiarities in the participating countries
